You think Berggren becoming Mantha would be a massive failure? Okay then.I know

That's what I said.You think Berggren becoming Mantha would be a massive failure? Okay then.
That's what I said.
He wasn't supposed to be a second round pick. He was a steal. I fully expect him to be better than Mantha.I'm sorry, but that's insane. A 2nd round winger turning out to be a 0.6 PPG player and certainly a top 6 forward is a MASSIVE failure. What have you even seen in Berggren's game to assume so highly of him?
I mean, I would be disappointed if Berggren underperformed compared to his skill, but just size wise, he's not Mantha. He's not going to be doing the same things that Mantha will do.
Is he me or does he look shorter than 6 foot? Looks like 5'10"
He wasn't supposed to be a second round pick. He was a steal. I fully expect him to be better than Mantha.
If he was 6'.025 at the combine he is 6'.025 now or bigger. He is listed at 5'10 in hockeydb and elite prospects but they haven't updated that in more than a year and he is a growing boy.He measured in at 6’.025” at the combine.
Unless you know the size of everyone else on the ice at the time you’re looking, you should go with that.
So was Kucherov? What's your point?And I didn't ask you to get on board? You quoted me, remember?But he was a second round pick. I think he was a good pick and will do some good stuff with Detroit, but I can't get on board with being massively disappointed if he scores 0.60 PPG.
And Nyquist is better than Mantha. So like I said I would be very disappointed if his ceiling is inconsistent Mantha....I'm hoping for a better version of Nyquist for Berggren and I think that's fair
Didn't say he WAS smaller than 6 I said TO ME he LOOKS smaller.He measured in at 6’.025” at the combine.

He looks about 5'10". And yes he might still grow hopefully to 6'2"If he was 6'.025 at the combine he is 6'.025 now or bigger. He is listed at 5'10 in hockeydb and elite prospects but they haven't updated that in more than a year and he is a growing boy.
That's what I said.
I'm hoping for it, not expecting it.I'm hoping for a better version of Nyquist for Berggren and I think that's fair
what is with the early game time?

Mantha is going to probably top out as a 50-70 point winger which is extremely good, if that's what he develops into, then that's a huge win. Keep your expectations realistic.
Curious to see what Zadina weighed in at (6'0.25" 196.66 lbs at the combine but listed at 6'0" 183 by elite and db has updated it recently to 196), I just checked what The HockeyWriters claim is a complete list of the size of the players measured there and Berggren wasn't on the list. I don't know if it was an omission by the HockeyWriters or if you are mistaken. Either way he is most likely bigger than 5'10" which he is listed at on hockjeydb and eliteprospects. They haven't updated that since the end of the 15-16 season. Being a late birthday, Berggren is one of the youngest players taken in the draft and is almost a year younger than Zadina so he is more likely to grow more than most of the others.He measured in at 6’.025” at the combine.
Unless you know the size of everyone else on the ice at the time you’re looking, you should go with that.
My expectations are realistic. He will be a better far better player than Mantha. And I will quote this in 2021...Mantha is going to probably top out as a 50-70 point winger which is extremely good, if that's what he develops into, then that's a huge win. Keep your expectations realistic.
Not attacking anyone he called me insane, then saying he can't get on board with MY opinion like I asked him anything lol...
Why are you attacking everyone my dude? Smile
My expectations are realistic. He will be a better far better player than Mantha. And I will quote this in 2021...
